This guy, he is pure gold IRL! If U wonder whether to hire him or not, I deeply recommend to do so!

[EmelieWaldken]

As usual, so beautifully played, it felt wide and sunny and calm somehow.

Wonderful like always 😃 thank you! I think this tuning I will try tomorrow. Sounds really good.

It's so enlighted and cheerful, that I think it's about the month, not the military type of melody)
Several turns to the second string were really pleasant to hear. I have a question concerning this - why not holding fingers between the strings and push them from there, why always keep them on the wood? Is it more comfortable or, I don't know, right, necessary, standart?
